dreame The end of the Pastorals Of Elegies I. ELEGIE He renounceth his food and former delight in Musicke Poefie and painting SItting at boord sometimes prepar'd to eate If 't hap my mind on these my woes to thinke Sighs fill my mouth instead of pleasant meate And teares do moyst my lips in lieu of drinke But yet nor sighs nor te●res that run amaine Can either starue my thoughts or quench my paine Another time with carefull thought o're-tane I thought these thoughts with musicks might ro chase But as I gan to set my notes in frame A sudden passion did my mind displace In stead of Rests sighs from my heart did rise In stead of Notes deepe sobs and mournefull cries Then when I saw that these my thoughts increas'd And that my thoughts vnto my woes gaue fire I hop't both thoughts and woes might be releas'de If to the Muses I did me retire Whose sweet delights were wont to case my woe But now alas they could do nothing so For trying oft alas yet still in vaine To make some pleasant numbers to arise And beating oft my dullen weary braine In hope some sweete conceit for to deuise Out of my mouth no words but grones would come Out of my pen no inke but teares would runne Of all my old delights yet one was left Painting alone to ease my mind remain'd By which when as I lookt to be bereft Of these heart vexing woes that still me strain'd From forth mine eyes the bloud for colour came And teares withall to temper so the same Adieu my foode that wontst my soule to please Adieu my songs that bred my eares delight Adieu sweete Muse that oft my mind didst ease Painting adieu that oft refresht my sight Since neither taste nor eares nor sight nor mind In your delights can ought saue sorrow find II. ELEGIE For what cause he obtaines his Ladies fauour DEeare why hath my long loue and faith vnfained At your faire hands no grace at all obtained I' st that my Pock-hol'd face doth beauty lack No Your sweete Sex sweete beauty praiseth Ours wit and valour chiefely raiseth I' st that my musk-lesse cloathes are pl ine and blacke No. What wise Lady loues fine noddies With poore clad minds and rich clad bodies I st that no costly gifts mine Agents are No. My true Heart which I present you Should more then pearle or gold content you I st that my verses want inuention rare No. I was neuer skilfull Poet I truely loue and plainely shew it I st that I vaunt or am effeminate O scornefull vices I abhor you Dwell still in court the place fit for you I st that you feare my loue soone turnes to hate No. Though disdain'd I can hate neuer But lou'd where once I loue loue euer I st that your fauours iealous eyes suppresse No. only vertue neuer sleeping Both your faire minds and bodies keeping I st that to many more I loue professe Goddesse you haue my hearts oblation And no Saint else lips inuocation No none of these the cause I now discouer No woman loues a faithfull worthy Louer III. ELEGIE To his Lady who had vowed virginity EV'n as my hand my Pen and paper layes My trembling hand my Pen from Paper stayes Least that thine eyes which shining made me loue you Should frowning on my sute bid cease to moue you So that I feare like one at his wits end Hoping to gaine and fearing to offend What pleaseth hope the same despaire mislikes What hope sets downe those lines despaire out strikes So that my nursing murthering Pen affords A graue and cradle to my new borne words But whilst as clouds tost vp and downe the aire I racked hang t'wixt hope and sad dispaire Despaire is beaten vanquisht from the field And vnto conqu'ring hope my heart doth yeeld For if that Nature loue to beauty offers And Beauty shunne the loue that nature proffers Then either vniust beauty is to blame With scorne to quench a lawfull kindled flame Or else vnlawfully if loue we must And be vnlou'd then nature is vniust Vniustly then nature hath hearts created There to loue most where most their loue is hated And flattring them with a faire seeming ill To poyson them with beauties sugred Pill Thinke you that beauties admirable worth Was to no end or idle end brought forth No no from nature neuer deede did passe But it with wisedomes hand subscribed was But you in vaine are faire if faire not viewed Or being seene mens hearts be not subdued Or making each mans heart your beauties thra ' You be enioye'd of no one at all For as the Lyons strength to seaze his pray And fearefull hearts light-foote to runne away Are as an idle talent but abused And fruitlesse had if had they be not vsed So you in vaine haue beauties bonds to shew By which mens eyes engaged hearts do owe If time shall cancell them before you gaine Th'indebted tribute to your beauties raine But if these reasons being vainely spent You fight it out to the last argument Tell me but how one body can enclose As louing friends two deadly hating foes But when as contraries are mixt together The colour made doth differ much from either Whilst mutually at strife they doe impeach The glasse and lustre proper vnto each So where one body ioyntly do inuest An Angels face and cruell Tigers brest There dieth both allegeance and command For selfe deuided Kingdomes cannot stand But as a child that knowes not what is what Now craueth this and now affecteth thar And hauing weighs not that which he requires But is vnpleasde euen in his pleasde desires Chaste beauty so both will and will not haue The selfe-same thing it childishly doth craue And wanton-like now loue now hate affecteth And loue or hate obtain'd as fast neglecteth So like the web Penelope did weaue Which made by day she did at night bereaue Fruitlesse affections endlesse threed is spunne At one selfe instant twisted and vndone Nor yet is this chaste beauties greatest ill For where it speaketh faire it there doth kill A marble heart vnder an amorous looke Is of a flattering baite the murthering hooke For from a Ladies shining-frowning eyes Deaths sable dart and Cupids arrow flyes Since then from Chastity and Beauty spring Such muddy streames where each doth reigne as King Let tyrant chastities vsurped throne Be made the seate of beauties grace alone And let your beauty be with this suffie'd Raze not my heart nor to your beauty raise Blood-guilded Trophees of your beauties praise For wisest Conquerors doe townes desire On honorable termes and not with fire IIII. ELEGIE Her praise is in her want Shee onely is the pride of natures skill In none but her all graces friendlie meete In all saue her may Cupid haue his will By none but her is fancy vnder feete Most strange of all her praise is in her want Her heart that should be flesh is Adamant Laudo quod lugeo V.
